Marvel/DC Who?
Hello to everyone.
I had my first exposure to the Valiant Universe back during the "Deathmate" Image/Valiant crossover event. After that, life happened.
Flash Forward to Emerald City Comic Con 2015 when I went to the Valiant 101 & 25th Anniversary panels on a lark. Holy hell, both of those panels were awesome and I suddenly realized what I had been missing all these years.
Long story short, I went back to the Valiant Booth and spent about $250 on all the available TPBs that were there, and the deluxe X-O Manowar (which turned out to be signed & numbered).
Returned home, immediately hit Amazon.com for the rest of the TPBs, added all the active titles to my subscription list so I wouldn't miss anything more, and bookmarked the Valiant website.
Today, I found this board, signed up, got approved, and now here I am.
So, in closing, I must say that I haven't been more excited about comics in a very long time.

Welcome to the boards. It's fun here as long as you steer clear of the Canadians.
Oregon Coast... That's awful close to Canada...
I bet you're another Canadian sympathizer. I'm not having much luck with new recruits...

Welcome from another newbie! I went to the Valiant panel at SC Comiccon last month, and it inspired me to drop a was of cash at the Valiant booth myself. Were they giving out Ivar golds there as well?

Re: Marvel/DC Who?
An unfortunate first exposure experience back in the day, but great story of your come-back to the Valiant Universe! I love hearing stories like this - welcome (back) to the fold!

Re: Marvel/DC Who?
I am new to comics and happy to have found Valiant early enough that I didn't waste too much time or money on Marvel or DC.
And I was in the room with you at ECCC.
